      rbd: replace the rbd sysfs interface · dfc5606d
      Yehuda Sadeh authored 
      The new interface creates directories per mapped image
and under each it creates a subdir per available snapshot.
This allows keeping a cleaner interface within the sysfs
guidelines. The ABI documentation was updated too.

      IB/mlx4: Fix memory ordering of VLAN insertion control bits · e27535b9
      Eli Cohen authored 
      We must fully update the control segment before marking it as valid,
so that hardware doesn't start executing it before we're ready.

      xfs: only run xfs_error_test if error injection is active · c76febef
      Dave Chinner authored 
      Recent tests writing lots of small files showed the flusher thread
being CPU bound and taking a long time to do allocations on a debug
kernel. perf showed this as the prime reason:

             samples  pcnt function                    DSO
             _______ _____ ___________________________ _________________

           224648.00 36.8% xfs_error_test              [kernel.kallsyms]
            86045.00 14.1% xfs_btree_check_sblock      [kernel.kallsyms]
            39778.00  6.5% prandom32                   [kernel.kallsyms]
            37436.00  6.1% xfs_btree_increment         [kernel.kallsyms]
            29278.00  4.8% xfs_btree_get_rec           [kernel.kallsyms]
            27717.00  4.5% random32                    [kernel.kallsyms]

Walking btree blocks during allocation checking them requires each
block (a cache hit, so no I/O) call xfs_error_test(), which then
does a random32() call as the first operation.  IOWs, ~50% of the
CPU is being consumed just testing whether we need to inject an
error, even though error injection is not active.

Kill this overhead when error injection is not active by adding a
global counter of active error traps and only calling into
xfs_error_test when fault injection is active.

      xfs: avoid moving stale inodes in the AIL · de25c181
      Dave Chinner authored 
      When an inode has been marked stale because the cluster is being
freed, we don't want to (re-)insert this inode into the AIL. There
is a race condition where the cluster buffer may be unpinned before
the inode is inserted into the AIL during transaction committed
processing. If the buffer is unpinned before the inode item has been
committed and inserted, then it is possible for the buffer to be
released and hence processthe stale inode callbacks before the inode
is inserted into the AIL.

In this case, we then insert a clean, stale inode into the AIL which
will never get removed by an IO completion. It will, however, get
reclaimed and that triggers an assert in xfs_inode_free()
complaining about freeing an inode still in the AIL.

This race can be avoided by not moving stale inodes forward in the AIL
during transaction commit completion processing. This closes the
race condition by ensuring we never insert clean stale inodes into
the AIL. It is safe to do this because a dirty stale inode, by
definition, must already be in the AIL.
